OK, I got some real cheap digital calipers on TEMU.com
$2.44 each. Free shipping. Came in about a week.
I didn't read the fine print. Only measures to .01 inches indicated unlike the metal ones we get from HF for $20 with .001"
I knew that they were plastic but did not see the .01" limitation.
Fit and finish is poor, the jaws close with no gap, but the jaws are not co-planar by about .050 at the tips.
Still, for $2.44 they are good enough for woodworking and to throw around the workbench without worrying about them.
if you want some sacrificial calipers these are them.
